Regardless of how it looks, it certainly didn't happen the way you think. The Vibrant folks were kind enough to give us the in-line driver technology to replace/suplement the archaic ADI method that 3DSr1 and r2 users had to put up with. About 3 months away from shipping (WAY beyond the date for freezing the code in the final QA process), they had an idea that we helped explore with them re how to accellerate the process. Even though we couldn't add it to the code at that point, they went ahead with doing an accellerator because I begged them to at least make the technology available to our customers who needed the extra speed. They were reluctant to do it, since they didn't think that the financial returns were worth the effort. But my insistent pleading with them eventually wore them out. – G
